Thought I'd try my bi-annual "poke at -mm". Results were less

First the sound driver oopsed.

Then, the whole thing locked up after probing the parallel port.
I disabled it in the BIOS, and then it locked up probing the floppy drive..

System is still alive, and responds to keyboard, but makes no forward progress.

(sysrq-B spewed a lockdep trace and then rebooted. I'll try and get

Off to find a serial cable.
